Well, there are some possible negative health effects as well.

Just an example, take it with a grain of salt.
I'd rather not.  Salt is sodium chloride, which contains the toxic chemical chlorine.  Chlorine is very similar to fluorine and is used in the manufacture of a variety of deadly chemicals, such as mustard gas.  When dissolved in liquid hydrogen monoxide, chlorine is used to kill trillions of microorganisms every day.  The chemical hydrogen monoxide is deadly in itself and is responsible for thousands of human deaths every year-yet the government still allows it in places of business, in food preparation, and even in our children’s schools.

Don't you mean 'dihydrogen monoxide'? If you're gonna go on a dumb rant, do it right. Smiley

Anyways, I'm starting to wonder if you people know what 'take it with a grain of salt' means.
Well, at least my comparison about chlorine and fluorine was mostly serious.  Should the government add chlorine to our water, or should everyone have to boil it for a half hour if they don't want cholera?  Nearly every argument against fluorine could apply to chlorine as well.

Dihydrogen Monoxide = Water. lol Dangerous? hilarious

H2O.

Screw dihydrogen monoxide; most food companies add sodium chloride to their food.  Can you believe it?
I once received a pamphlet from Greenpeace arguing that chlorine is a toxic chemical and therefore we should ban *all* compounds of chlorine.
